SLEEVE-BOARD.

T 0 all whom "it may concern:

Be it known that I, HOWARD E. KUNKLE, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Vandergrift Heights, in the county of Westmoreland and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Sleeve-Boards, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawing.

This invention relates to a sleeve board, particularly designed for laundry purposes.

The primary object of my invention is to provide a novel revolvin sleeve board that can be easily clamped to a table or similar support.

Another object of my invention is to provide a simple and inexpensive ironing board that can be adjusted to support a sleeve or garment, whereby the same can be ironed.

A further object of this invention is to facilitate the operation of ironing or cleaning a sleeve of a garment.

With the above and other objects in view, which will readily appear as the invention is better understood, the same consists in the novel construction, combination and arrangement of parts to be presently described and then specifically pointed out in the appended claims.

In the drawings, Figure 1 is a front elevation of my improved sleeve board. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the same partly in section, and Fig. 3 is a perspective view of a clamp member used in connection with the board.

In the accompanying drawings, 1 designates a clamp member reinforced by a rib 2. This member is secured to a table or suitable support 3 by a set screw 4. The upper end of the member 1 is provided with a cylindrical shank 5 upon which is revolubly mounted a cap 6 having a transverse T shaped groove 7 formed therein. Slidably mounted in the groove 7 is a T shaped bar 8 to which is secured by screws 9 a sleeve board 10. The cap 6 is held stationary by a set screw 11 mounted in said cap for fric- Specification of Letters Patent.

tionally en aging the shank 5. To hold the bar 8 in a fixed position with relation to the cap 6, said cap is provided with a set screw 12 for engaging the bar and fixing the same within the groove 7. It is apparent that I can rapidly adjust the sleeve board 10, and that the board in its entirety is compact and light and can be easily attached to a table or suitable support.

Such changes in the size, proportion and minor details of my invention as are permissible by the appended claims can be resortedto without departing from the spirit and scgpe of the invention.

aving now described my invention what I claim as new, is

1. The combination with a suitable sup port, of a member clamped thereon, a cylindrical shank carried by said member, a revoluble cap mounted upon said shank, a set screw carried by said cap for holding said cap in a fixed position, said cap having a T shaped groove formed therein, a T shaped bar slidably mounted in said groove, a set screw carried by said cap for fixing said bar in said groove, and a board secured to said 2. In an ironing board, a clamp-member terminating at its upper end in'a cylindrical shank, a cap mounted on said shank to be revolved thereon and provided with a T- shaped groove, a T-shaped bar mounted on said groove, a board carried by said bar, means carried by the cap for engagement with the bar for securing the latter in adjusted position in the groove, and means also carried by the cap engaging said cylindrical shank for securing the cap in adjusted position thereon.

In testimony whereof I affix my signature in the presence of two witnesses:
